Biography
Lamar Davis was born in the Baldwin Village neighborhood of Crenshaw, Los Angeles, California, and he attended high school in Compton with Franklin Clinton. Davis and Clinton became best friends and joined The Families gang, and Davis became a drug dealer. He and Clinton later became vehicle repossession men for Simeon Yetarian, but Lamar's craziness led the duo into trouble, as Lamar made the mistake of kidnapping the Ballas OG Chilli D and calling his gang with the ransom demands; because the phone was tapped by the LAPD, Davis was forced to let D go free rather than face prison time for kidnapping. His relationship with Clinton was slightly strained due to Clinton's move to Beverly Hills and his abandonment of The Families lifestyle, and Davis convinced him to trust the recently-released OG Harold Joseph (nicknamed "Stretch"), who led the gang into a shootout with the Ballas at a scrapyard. Davis and Clinton were later nearly killed during a drug deal gone wrong on Grove Street, but they were saved by Trevor Philips, a friend of Clinton's who wanted to come along with them and take part in criminal activities. Davis later helped Clinton with stealing cars for Devin Weston, hoping to make extra money. However, his big mouth got him into trouble with Stretch, who had the Ballas kidnap him and take him to a sawmill in the Paleto Forest. Clinton, Philips, and Michael De Santa later rescued Davis from the sawmill, and Clinton advised Davis to find real work rather than continue his gang lifestyle. However, Davis continued to be involved with crime, assigning jobs to criminal newcomers to the area, including the theft of lowriders.
